Daybreak & the Hybrid Life:

So the good and the bad of my adventures in going back in the high school yesterday:
only half of the students were supposed to be there, which is how the hybrid life goes.
It turns out only 1/3 to 1/2 of that half actually showed up. Everybody else was virtual.
Many of the staff were also not in and had substitutes.
I wrote a nice, respectful email to my building principal asking, since all of this is true, what is it about this particular week that is so high risk, that makes it necessary for have us to be in building?
The response:
“Let’s chat about your concerns tomorrow.”
So I invited him to come up to my bathroom duty so we can chat about it...
In the physical building once again today.

@Todd I lived in Long Hill until '09. Scotti's in Gillette had a 25yr run until 2011. I guess Summit is the only location left. Owner was so nice, even special ordered sticks and strings for me. And yes Peapod is Stop & Shop.

@Steveo, the id says East Orange because FMU was originally chartered by and located at Upsala College, whence it existed it was located in East Orange. However I believe the transmitter and antenna were always located up on the first mountain in West Orange or Waste Orange as we would call it growing up there and getting wasted... only once -n- awhile of course.
That is a pretty darn good map you’re working with. Good luck.

I do not see the benefit or continuity of jumping from face to face, virtual, hybrid learning from week to week or day to day. Academic hopscotch sounds nauseating. At least the county college where I labor declared most classes remote this semester and I expect, in the summer. Fall remains unknown.

The WFMU transmitter, way back in the days of the Old Yellow and early subsequent moves, was sacred. We would drive by and stare and a couple times we visited. Repressive managers threats "to turn the transmitter off" never manifested but it loomed. We were right next to the ghastly, overpowering WFME, that scary right wing religious station at 94.7.

It bled into WFMU, of course, and other frequencies. I used to marvel how such a powerful frequency could be devoted to the cult dribble that poured out of there. Not much of an FM listener these days unless it is WFMU or WQXR (sorry) or WBGO, at times, when they are not too self righteous.
